WEST ORANGE — One of two accused killers of a West Orange woman who was home watching her granddaughter when she was fatally stabbed on Sept. 3 appeared in Essex County Superior Court today as her lawyer entered a not guilty plea on her behalf.

Carline Inginac, 21, was ordered held in lieu of $500,000 bail after a brief hearing before Judge Peter Vazquez.

In the courtroom sat victim Sandy Yuen’s son, Jackie, who was comforted by his wife, Carla Soria, as he got a glimpse of one of his mother’s alleged killers for the first time.

“I’m very mad,” said Yuen, 27. “My mom didn’t do anything wrong. It’s just not fair.”

Inginac said little during the hearing, except to acknowledge that she understood that murder and robbery charges are pending against her.

Her alleged accomplice, Rakeem Scott, 18, of Newark, has not been caught.
